After the distance was calculated we have worked on the data representation using the following data variables: the bacterial OTU (n = 101), sample (n = 196), pairwise distance (between each of the representatives of the OTUs in each of the 196 samples) and the geographic region of sample origin.
Summary geographic statistics (total and average size, standard distance, percent sample) highlight the geographic extent of each threat (Table 3).
The geographic distribution of the sample mirrored the geographic distribution of the Dutch population.
The CHIS sample represents the geographic and racial/ethnic diversity of California; interviews are conducted in multiple languages to accommodate the state's rich racial/ethnic diversity.
Study strengths include the large sample size, the geographic, racial, and ethnic diversity, and the use of 2 years of prior inpatient and outpatient claims to estimate comorbidity burden and severity.
Only two other pieces of linked information are archived with samples: (1) the geographic location of sampling (specified by both geographic coordinates and population name), and (2) the sex of the individual from whom the sample was taken.
This paper examines the validity of correlating molecular phylogeny and venom apparatus by increasing the diversity of taxa sampled and the geographic coverage to include terebrid samples from the eastern Pacific.
Analysis of 27 allozyme loci in 2125 individuals sampled from Israel, Turkey, and Iran suggested geographic differentiation in wild barley populations (Nevo et al. 1986) but did not sample the complete geographic range of wild barley.
In our sample the native geographic range is represented by only five individuals with a global native range FST of 0.66.
Similarly, there has been no effort to integrate taxonomic lists for subtidal epifaunal communities in Canadian waters, but this habitat is not well sampled and the geographic coverage of such an effort would be quite limited.
